  1. the new capt club # is also my name. i'm getting emails for both capt club #s. The original capt club # is elite plus. the new one says Loyalty Tier: PREVIEW
  2. I noticed recently that emails from celebrity has a different Capt club # but same email addr. I can't call right now because I'm on a non-celebrity cruise. Anyone else have this? How did this happen?
  3. So 7 days left and still $140 for basic upgrade instead of $110. I asked the internet mgr. She counted embarkation day as day 1. So basically cheapest upgrade is 8 days left. On Viva, the internet mgr started the day after embarkation day as day1. Lesson learned. Ask what day they think is day 1. :(
  4. no gripe. just surprised. i thought others would also be surprised but apparently it's just me that i dont know salesmen when i see one?
  5. Ahh.. that's very helpful! Yes, when I was at DR last week at Taino bay, cruise docs did say Puerto Plata Thx
  6. Yes, but to me, reaching a target goal to get a bonus is not commission. Ie: A Xmas bonus if the company does well. Yes cn people are nice. But them starting out saying would you like 4 (or 4each if a couple) if asking to buy cn is off-putting. I'd rather them say how many would you like. Yes, they don't push it after I say I only want 2
  7. Ah.. ncl paying commission twice. Never thought of that.
  8. That's what the cn person said. Maybe they get commission only for cruises sold that weren't xferred to a ta?
  9. Well, i thought of them NOT mentioning that the onboard credit you receive for buying CN can be used to pay for CN is from ncl instructions. Ncl wants the buyer to spend/waste that obc in the shops onboard. but yes, i agree with you about misleading in selling those. for the other things they do (running Platinum benefits, informational talks in the Atrium), i think they do fine.
  10. interesting. next time i'm there, i'm going to ask why one port over the other.
  11. No, the casino drink card does not exempt you from the corkage fee. i tried with wine from NCL because i was coming from another cruise. It was East West red and underneath that said 'By Norwegian Cruise line'. The person said the drink package has to be printed on the keycard and it doesnt matter where the wine came from. i said ok and that she can keep it since it was free to me. She said she can write me a slip and the wine will be returned to me on the last day of cruise. i said sure and i did get the wine back on last day
  12. i was on sky last week. It was Taino Bay. My understanding is that Amber Cove is Carnival
  13. I just thought they were told to sell a 4pack of CN certs as much as possible.
  14. Never thought of them as sales people. Shrug. So restaurant personal that sells additional dining packages on board get a commission too?
  15. Never knew this till recently. They get commission for cruises booked. And I'm betting they get commissions for CruiseNext certificates sold. That would explain why they are pushing people to buy $1000 worth :o
  16. i'm caesars diamond and have used their 20% discount pre-covid. I never got hit with an Admin fee when i booked non-free cruises and used the 20% discount. When did this admin fee start for non-free cruises? and How much is the Admin fee per day?
  17. yup. i went from viva to sky on the same day. oh what a difference! crawling with sky
  18. Convienence. When you activate the 300min, you get the upgrade offer. If you decline the upgrade, you have to wait on line at internet mgr to upgrade
  19. 4day cruise, day 2: Ncl sky: Unlimited internet doesn't get cheaper on day two on four-day cruises. On 10-day cruises it's gets cheaper till day 3 so 7 days left. Ncl sky: Unlimited internet doesn't get cheaper on day two on four-day cruises. So $60 ($15/day if embarkation day) On 10-day cruises it's gets cheaper till day 3 so 7 days left. 7x30 is $210 - 100 is $110 ($15.71/day)
  20. 60' is fun! I was on breakaway pre COVID and waves hit the atrium deck (deck 7) so I assume 70' waves. They had to put towels under the sliding doors to keep out the water. Wheeee!
  21. It's mon and I see 4 cruise ships from my terminal window :o It's mon and I'm leaving on ncl sky. There are 2 ncl, 2 carnival, 1 Msc and 1 celebrity ships docked. Why so many on a Mon?
  22. It's only a self serve ice cream stand? Was hoping like a gelato stand like on Breakaway. Cone was good 👍
  23. ahh.. so small holes in the deck 8 bow are near negligible compared to holes in the hull. wait a sec... 😛
